I'm not too happy with the rhetorical strategy expressed in the previous
bombardment of questions. I thought I was trying to answer the original
question. A purse or two of gold coins can be calculated as follows:
AxB/CxDxE = COLLECTION
Where:
A = the number of contributing (Pauline?) churches (not necessarily
ethnically Gentile, but associated with the Pauline mission).
B = the number of "members" in each church
C= the proportion of members who could/would contribute
D= the average amount of each contribution
E= the number of weekly contributions collected.
Now, Let's say A= 10; B=50; C= 1/2; D = 1 assarion, E =50
COLLECTION = 12,500 Assarions = 31 gold coins per year of collection
